FALLING LEAVES.

some week, ago yon leaves were green, And dccked the trees so fair, And forest glade, aS we have seen.
 Was a glorious picture. rare. The hiriics sang their songs of praise That the woods were green again; The deer and rabbit roamcd different ways And were sport for dogs and men. But now! the green has changed,
 As youth to mellow age, And one by one ti- thus arranged
 As falls the leaves, we turn II page. The leaves are falling and are We
 Falling our places to fill; Iris given Us, H. leaves to be,
 Obedicnt to His will. Autumns gorgeous dress remind us,
 I.ifc's itfu drcum is appalling, To-day we sing, we dance, rejoice,
 Tomorrow, like the leaves, we are falling. The leaves are falling, but they did their part And in falling they still do the same; We live, and work, and then depart,
 Yet even unknown to fame. Let the falling leaves, fhe faded leaves, Be subject we study with care, For hourly and daily we steadily weave The threads of existence bare. Prescott, Ark, Nov. 2lst, ls>..

May do for a stupid boys excuse but what can be said for the parent who sees his child languishing daily and fails to recognize the want of tonic and blood-puriier Formerly, a course of bitters, or sulphur and molasses, was the rule in wcll-regulated families but now all intelligent households keep Ayers Sarsaparilla, which is at once pleasant to the taste, and the most searching and affective blood medicine ever discovered
 Nathan s. Cleveland, 27 E. Canton st. Boston, writes: My daughter, now 2l years old, was in perfect health until a year ago when she began to complain of fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness, indigestion, and loss of appetite con. cluded that all her complaints originated in impure blood, and induced her to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla This medicine soon restored her blood-making organs to healthy action, and in due time reestab. Iishcd her former health. l find Ayers Sarsaparila most valuable remedy for the lassitude and debility incident to spring time.
